ENG vs SL Dream11 Prediction: Top Captaincy Picks

Jonny Bairstow: Jonny Bairstow hasn’t done anything significant so far, but he is a quality batter. Bairstow might enjoy batting on a flat Bengaluru track and can wreak havoc against Sri Lanka. Expect Bairstow to make an impact in the game.

Joe Root: Joe Root has a tremendous record against Sri Lanka, and he will look to change his ODI numbers. His form might not have been as good, but Root is a good batter. Hence, Root can score big in the game.

Kusal Mendis: Kusal Mendis has been a consistent performer for Sri Lanka for a while now. Mendis can again score big on a fine batting track. Expect Mendis to play a good knock.

Dhananjaya de Silva: Dhananjaya de Silva has a decent batting record against England in ODIs. He can also snare a few wickets. Hence, Dhananjaya can be a good differential pick.
